CONTINUE YOUR CALLS AND EMAILS TO THE WHITE HOUSE, and to Congress, emphasizing the need for a permanent and sustainable ceasefire, release of hostages and Palestinian prisoners, and unfettered access to aid for Gaza.
Use of and Supply of weapons
On June 5, several members of Congress, including Rep. Jayapal in Washington, introduced a first-of-its kind House bill to block some weapons to Israel. Write to Congress and tell them to support H.R.3565 - "To provide for a limitation on the transfer of defense articles and defense services to Israel."
Following the U.S. bombing of Iranian nuclear sites, bipartisan resolutions were introduced in the House and Senate calling for no use of U.S. military forces against Iran without Congressional approval. S.J.Res.59 failed to pass in the Senate, with a vote of 47-53. Tell Representatives in the House to support H.Con.Res.38.
Nuclear Weapons
Our partners at Washington Against Nuclear Weapons tell us that the NewSTART nuclear arms control treaty between the US and Russia is set to expire next year. The agreement limits the number of actively deployed nuclear warheads to 1,500 at any given time, greatly reducing the risk of a miscalculated launch or nuclear accident.
Write to your Senators to support S. Res 61 in the Senate, and your Representative in Congress to support H. Res 100, both of which call for international cooperation to reduce nuclear weapons, and the threat of nuclear war.
